I know of some real nice Hoover Dam bred heifers that are real nice cattle. We will see about longevity and docility as time passes. But they look good and their first sets of calves were top notch.
I liked the comment littlejoe made about handling cattle. We have neighbors that could turn the highest docility scored cow into Godzilla within a week. And they can't figure out why their cattle are breechy, wild rascals??? To me, while some lines can have the tendency to produce more waspy cows, how you handle stock has a lot more to do with it. And if you find one or three that are high-headed knotheads, put them on the next truck to town.
